Vader10 Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 I am stuck at a certain point and wondering if I am going about things all wrong. I am on the mission in the 2nd group of 5 where you go to Coruscant to capture a crimeboss who has been selling assassin droids. About 1/2 way through the maze of building tops to get to the boss's building, I ran across a droid with some kind of shield. I assume this is the assassin droid they are talking about. Anyway, I tried all kinds of things to kill this bugger. I couldnt find anything that seemed to hurt it. I bypassed the droid and moved on. I figured at the time that they were meant to be avoided. Well when I finally made it to the boss hq, he hides himself and locks the door. Out comes 4 of these freaking droids. I couldn't even figure out how to take out one of them. I looked around for a secret exit to no avail. How on God's green earth can I defeat these things??
•-BLaCKouT-• Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 Easiest thing to do is to get killed, choose new mission and restart the mission from scratch. Most of it's easy enough second time round. Only make sure you choose the DEMP-2 gun, this takes out the droids in 2-3 shots. Which makes the end easy. B.
Vader10 Posted September 19, 2003 Author Posted September 19, 2003 Thanks for the info. I thought that was what I was going to have to get a Demp gun.
SpaceButler14 Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 Nah, don't need a gun. Wait till they shoot, force speed, and hit them while the shield is down.
StormHammer Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 Originally posted by SpaceButler13 Nah, don't need a gun. Wait till they shoot, force speed, and hit them while the shield is down. That's exactly what I did. I found that six or seven hits from the lightsaber turns them into so much scrap metal. If you have fast stance, use that - it blocks most of their incoming blaster shots - and stand just beyond the influence of their shields. As soon as their shield goes down, hit Force Speed and start hacking away. You'll have a good few seconds to get some slashes in (but you won't take it down within the time available before the shield comes up). Just wait until the shield goes down a second time, rinse and repeat, and you should have a dismembered droid flopping around your feet. Use exactly the same tactic on the four droids at the end of the level - just make sure you don't allow any of them to flank you, so you can deflect their blaster fire. Take them down one at a time. Hope that helps.
samiam9 Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 That's exactly how I did it fast style plus speed when shield is down. Worked great.
podunk Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 They keep ruling me. How do I get rid of 'em? I think it has something to do with timing their sheilds off and hitting them with lightsaber? I'm sure this has already been posted before but I couldn't find it. Search: "Sorry. The search function has been disabled by the administrator." Lame lame lame. thanks
t3rr0r Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 try using explosives or lightning if you want to stay away from their shields.
JarJarBinks Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Just wait till their shields turn off then either whack them with a strong stance swing (if you have it) or throw your saber at them. Be quick though or you'll get stuck in their shields and you'll die.
Clemme w/Stick Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Just stand in front of them, at a reasonable distance of course. Block their shots and wait for them to drop their shield. When they lower their shield throw your saber, and keep continuating this process until they fall. It takes time but its the easiest way to do it. -Clemme
Krause Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Or just use the Demp-2, that finishes em off quickly
Comm539 Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 hmmm just get the demp emp gun and it just takes 2-3 shots of that. Plus, once you got the first shot, the droids disabled for a few seconds so he can't fire back.
•-BLaCKouT-• Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Just what I was going to say, you two That's what the DEMP gun's designed for Yeah, you've got to re-start the mission, but the beginning bit of it's easier the second time round. B.
JarJarBinks Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I never take the DEMP-2, it's only useful against robots, and how many levels do you fight robots? I always take the disrupter and the bowcaster/flechette/concussion rifle for the first/second/third set of missions.
|GG|Carl Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I just standed besides it with force protect, and when the shield goes down, make a fast cut versus him, and then back of. repeat lots of times:D works best with red saber style.
Chrondeath Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I killed them all with the light stance roll-stab. Timed it so I rolled in right when the shield went down, and they usually collapsed just before I stood up again. If it didn't work, I think I had just enough time to back off before the shield went up again. This was on Jedi Knight difficulty, so it may not work if they have more health on Jedi Master.
Darth Talliusc Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 silly kids. my method was probably faster then any of yours when starting the mission select detonation packs as your explosive. when the 4 droids are spawned they will be in a small room off to the side very close to each other. force speed. run up and drop 2 det packs (one pack can kill 3 of em but you want em all gone quickly) make sure their shields are OFF when you detonate and huzzah! in the words of jar jar "dumb droids".
qweazdak Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 its kind off topic but are there enemies (on any map) or locations that drop the demp gun? or can it only be picked up at the weapon select menu? I found no use for it until I read this thread. I guess i did it the hard way.
Comm539 Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Im on last level and i haven't ever picked it up. I always carry it. Use saber on everything but turrets and robots. It comes in handy in the later levels.
cayqel Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 There is one location i remember were you can find it... {spoiler} In Vjun there's a dual (?) sabered reborn you fight next to a long table surrounded by droid parts, amung the driod parts is a demp.
Starfire13 Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Use the gun that shoots electric bolts. No. 7, I think. The one that looks a little like a blunderbus. Three shots, and their down, and you don't even need to wait for their shields to go down. The Zero-G Troopers are another story, though. I've yet to find an effective strategy for taking them down.
Razielssword Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Stafire13 Thanks. Spoiler As for the Zero G troopers I used Jedi Mind trick they stay there for ages. spoiler:
